Humanities

Click here to support the brothers in their formation.

While they are dedicated to the study of the humanities, our recently professed brothers ("humanists") also learn how to apply their spiritual formation in accord with the Legion’s charism and apostolate – namely, forming Catholic apostles.

Humanists continue building their religious life, but take their formation to the next stage. They learn to work with others through small group dynamics, eight to twelve seminarians, who meet regularly for prayer and various assigned projects. They learn to take on leadership positions and to be a team player when others are leading. Thus, they come to understand how to interact effectively with many personality types.

As part of their training, humanists are exposed to a larger view of the Church and of evangelization. Their apostolic work includes giving talks at parishes, coordinating retreats for Regnum Christi members, fathers and sons, and business leaders. For the past three years, the humanists have also attended the March for Life in Washington and participated in Archdiocesan events for consecrated persons.
